re: #71 Lupin
Overall, for all the money spent of your military, it is telling that ultimately, the Russians found it cheaper to just buy your country. As Lenin once said: ‘The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.’
They saw a vulnerability: the core of it lay in the fact that our education system had failed to teach people about civics, history and critical reading/thinking.
Made us easy pickings.
